Synopsis
British doctor James Levine, while working for humanitarian causes in India, was struck by the image of a teenage Mumbai prostitute writing in her journal on the street. After interviewing several of the child prostitutes working on the "street of cages," he began to write THE BLUE NOTEBOOK, a harrowing yet deeply human tale of a nine-year-old girl, Batuk, who is sold into slavery by her father and faces six years of cruel dehumanizing work in India's sprawling child-sex industry. The notebook of the title is the one Batuk writes in, reminiscing about her childhood in the countryside, and describing her stoic attempts to maintain her humanity in the face of constant abuse. Levine has pledged to donate all his profits from the novel to organizations trying to end child prostitution, and so THE BLUE NOTEBOOK works as a riveting tale, eye-opening research, and a good cause.

Publisher's Note
Sold into sexual slavery as a young girl, fifteen-year-old Batuk spends her days in a cage on Mumbai's child-prostitute district while recording thoughts and stories in a diary, in a tale by a renowned scientist whose proceeds will be donated to the International and National Centers for Missing and Exploited Children.
